Red heads have not had a great year so far; Conan got royally screwed by NBC, M.I.A. is releasing videos of them being persecuted in some kind of rusty-headed genocide, and it turns out many sun blocks may increase your likelihood of getting skin cancer, which our fair-skinned friends have to worry about more then most.

Thank God that tri-state area band Twin Sister have recorded this ode to them, entitled Ginger. Twin Sister has a very dreamy, lo-fi sound that I guess might lump them in with the Chillwave crowd. They've recently released an ep called Color Your Life but this track is from their debut ep, Vampires with Dreaming Kids.

What's the Deal?

One Sweet Song is a music blog written by Gina Pensiero, of band Palmyra.

High quality and fully eclectic, this music-blog-as-radio-station doesn't get down with payola and was started as a means to dish up One Sweet Song per business day. Life got a little crazy, which means posts got a little more sporadic, but we're sticking with the magical one song/post formula.

No fuss. No bullshit. Just one sweet song.

You'll also get context--cultural and personal--around why the song is so rad. Editorials are kept short and sweet (no pun intended).

The views expressed on this website/weblog are mine alone and do not reflect the views of my employer. Wahn Wahn.

Contact/Submissions

All files posted on OSS are intended only for sampling. The only way artists get paid and indie labels survive is if you go buy their music. Please do that. If your song/the song of someone you represent is up and you don't want it to be, please let me know and I will remove it immediately.

I'm open to submissions, but I get A LOT. Please don't be mad at me when I don't write back immediately. I am not a heartless bastard.

When submitting to OSS, please send me a single. I love albums. I think albums are the shit. I'm sure your album is awesome. But this blog is about songs, so please just send me one of those. Mp3 attachments or links are fine. No downloadable single means I won't hear your music.
